Alana Thompson was six when she first appeared on the series Toddlers and Tiaras on the TLC network in early 2012. Drinking “go-go juice” (a mixture of Red Bull and Mountain Dew) and strutting around in spangled child pageant outfits, she caught the eye of both viewers and producers, who promptly gave her her own show. Here Comes Honey Boo Boo premiered on August 8, 2012.

The show’s official site described it this way: “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo follows Alana and her family: stay-at-home mom June, chalk-mining dad Sugar Bear, and sisters 12-year-old Lauryn ‘Pumpkin,’ 15-year-old Jessica ‘Chubbs,’ and 17-year-old Anna ‘Chickadee.'” The show was set in the family’s hometown of McIntyre, Georgia, and subtitles were used to make the family’s words clear. Honey Boo Boo’s obese mother June became the show’s co-star along with her daughter, and the show featured the self-described “redneck” family saying things like “It’s been a while since I done had road kill in my belly.” Here Comes Honey Boo Boo was an immediate hit, although critics weren’t so impressed: The Onion A/V Club, for one, called the show a “train wreck,” a “dire warning to the world at large” and a “horror story posing as a reality television program.” Extra credit How old is Honey Boo Boo? The answer is now fully clear.

HollywoodLife.com reports her birth date as 28 August 2005… The family adopted a pig in the show’s second episode and named it Glitzy… Sugar Bear’s real name is Mike Thompson… The show Here Comes Honey Boo Boo is produced by Authentic Entertainment, which also produces shows like Ace of Cakes and You’re Wearing That? TLC's 'Honey Boo Boo' Cancellation Shows Dangers Of Exploitative TV : NPR TLC's 'Honey Boo Boo' Cancellation Shows Dangers Of Exploitative TV June "Mama June" Shannon jokes with daughter Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson, star of TLC's unscripted series Here Comes Honey Boo Boo. John Bazemore/AP hide caption toggle caption John Bazemore/AP June "Mama June" Shannon jokes with daughter Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson, star of TLC's unscripted series Here Comes Honey Boo Boo. John Bazemore/AP It's easy to slip into gloating mode, now that cable channel TLC has finally canceled a show so many of us critics have hated for so long: Here Comes Honey Boo Boo.

Unfortunately, the cancellation comes following a horrifying moment: Gossip site TMZ reported Thursday that June "Mama June" Shannon, the mother of child beauty pageant contestant Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson, has resumed dating an old boyfriend who was convicted of molesting an 8-year-old related to Shannon. Shannon has denied the allegations, saying in a video on her Facebook page that "I have not seen that person in 10 years." But TMZ posted a photo it says depicts Shannon and the man, 53-year-old Mark McDaniel, recently hanging out with friends in a hotel room. Days later, TMZ published another photo of McDaniel, Shannon and her youngest daughter "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson together, amid reports that McDaniel was convicted and jailed for molesting an older daughter of Shannon's a decade ago. Article continues after sponsorship Is Honey Boo Boo Hazardous? TLC on Friday issued a statement without addressing the allegations directly: "TLC has cancelled the series HERE COMES HONEY BOO BOO and ended all activities around the series, effective immediately. Supporting the health and welfare of these remarkable children is our only priority.

TLC is faithfully committed to the children's ongoing comfort and well-being." This is where you would typically insert lots of commentary referencing early questions of whether the show exploits its young star (it was developed as a spinoff of the child beauty pageant series Toddlers and Tiaras). Or you could note how such "hicksploitation TV" shows stereotype rural, Southern families with little regard for the impact of turning their lives into national punch lines. And you could comment on how all the justifications from Mama June insisting participation in the show wouldn't seriously damage her daughter — echoed by TLC as it raked in the ratings, of course — feels bitterly hollow now. But this is something we've seen in a less alarming way before. When Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson let his inner homophobe fly in a GQ magazine interview, A&E suspended him, then unsuspended him and saw ratings plummet nearly 50 percent from the show's heights. Bravo's Real Housewives franchise just saw two of its stars, Joe and Teresa Giudice, sent to prison on conspiracy and bankruptcy fraud charges , leading some critics to wonder whether such activities were connected to maintaining the wealthy lifestyle showcased on the program.

(Bravo, of course, turned a post-sentencing interview into a TV special.) Too often, it seems reality TV producers have been in the business of handing worldwide platforms to dubious people in questionable circumstances. They shrug off criticisms of their high-wire TV acts and cross their fingers, hopeful that their "stars" won't implode until — like the bitter divorce between Jon and Kate Plus 8 stars Jon and Kate Gosselin — their shows are already in decline. (Honey Boo Boo's recent ratings have also been lower than previous highs.) According to TMZ, TLC has a season's worth of Honey Boo Boo episodes it is shelving. But the website also reported that Shannon was sneaking off during filming to spend time with McDaniel, raising questions about what the cable channel knew and whether it should have called off the series before allegations about this relationship were made public. Often, the consequences for creating these kinds of TV shows can seem ephemeral and academic. But even if Shannon's denials about dating McDaniel are true, the entire episode has become national news in the most brutal way — possibly leaving vulnerable children and a fractured family in its wake. Wonder if anyone will think of this when the next exploitative TV concept comes up?

Can you make yourself turn away? WHAT IT'S ABOUT This spinoff from "Toddlers & Tiaras" focuses on 6-year-old Alana Thompson and her family as they encourage her child beauty-pageant career. After just two weeks on the air, it's already a cable ratings smash.

Nicknamed Honey Boo Boo Child by her 300-pound Mama (real name: June) and her older sisters, our title star is the Georgia family's loudmouthed mimic, rewarded for all the bratty behavior you'd punish in your own kids. She yells instead of talks, and sounds less like a first-grader than a who's-the-daddy guest on "Maury." CelebritiesChild stars then and now Did I mention the names of the other kids? That would be 12-year-old Pumpkin (Lauryn), 15-year-old Chubbs (Jessica) and 17-year-old pregnant Chickadee (Anna). And how about HBB's father, Sugar Bear (Mike), who is not married to Mama but lives with the family. (Each of the three older sisters has different fathers.) advertisement | advertise on newsday Did I mention the household's pet pig? "I hope Mama don't eat Glitzy," HBB declaims in tonight's 8 p.m. episode. "She eats everything else." No ba-dum-bum music here -- just the plunkin' banjo of yokel music designed to clue us that the producers are in on the joke here.

In fact, they create the jokes here. When the kids sprawl across a "redneck waterslide" -- a backyard tarp with baby oil hosed down -- handy subtitles translate from this family's "foreign" language: "Gawd made dirt, and dirt don't hurt." ("Gawd" spelling from TLC.) MY SAY Can't tell you about other episodes. Can't -- oops, cain't -- stand to watch 'em. At least TV's previous rural-centric era, the '60s sitcom spate of "The Beverly Hillbillies" and "Green Acres," had a point besides laughing at yokel behavior; it generally seemed those yokels had more honest sense than the "sophisticates" bemused by them. But common sense is in short supply here. TLC sure isn't interested in it, and neither are the viewers who love to laugh at trashy-folk shows like this. CelebritiesCelebrity baby names Please note, I'm not saying this show's subjects are trashy people. Just that TV's take on them is. That's where honesty is in really short supply. The notion that people on these shows are acting "natural" is just nuts.

They're performing as caricatures for the cameras, which is fine if that's what adults want to do and adults want to see.

But is this brat-fest really something its child "star" is going to want to watch when she's 26 years old, or even 16? Is Mama feeding HBB's dreams here, or her own? And the flatulence jokes are funnier on "South Park." BOTTOM LINE When Mama says "Let's see how much damage we done did," she's talking about the cost of her grocery couponing spree. I'm thinking about her kids.

The family of 9-year-old pageant star Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson saw their reality show vanish and their names splashed all over the tabloids when photos surfaced last week of the family’s matriarch spending time with Mark McDaniel, a man who molested Shannon’s 20-year-old daughter Anna Cardwell. He was recently released from jail after he served time for aggravated child molestation. Now, Shannon’s 14-year-old daughter is slamming Lee “Uncle Poodle” Thompson, who appeared on the series, claiming he is spreading lies about the seemingly tight-knit family, adding fuel to the fire surrounding their scandal. On Instagram, Lauryn Shannon, aka “Pumpkin” from the now-canceled show , posted a rant against her father’s brother. She shared a photo of an account she claims belonged to Lee Thompson and his partner. More On This... 'Honey Boo Boo' matriarch denies dating child sex offender “THIS HERE IS UNCLE POODLE AND HIS MAN. THEY ARE UPSET BC THE SHOW WAS CANCELLED AND THEY NO LONGER HAVE MONEY. THEY HAVE BEEN SELLING FALSE STORIES AND MAKING MONEY.

EVERY STORY THAT’S [sic] OUT RIGHT NOW HE HAS PUT OUT AND ITS ALL FALSE. HE JUST THINKS IT ALL FUN AND GAMES SELLING FAMILY OUT…” FOX411 can reveal that Lee Thompson tried to sell a story to us when we reached out to him for comment about Shannon allegedly dating McDaniel. “For the true real story about all of this and photos how much is it worth to yall,” he wrote. FOX411 does not buy stories and did not hear from Thompson again after we made that clear to him. Meanwhile, reports say Honey Boo Boo’s dad is mulling over whether or not he should try to get custody of the child star and her two underage sisters—as one of the images that leaked of Shannon with McDaniel showed the convicted sex offender with his hand on Alana Thompson’s arm. "He is really distraught," a source told E! News of Mike “Sugar Bear” Thompson. "He is torn apart by this.

He is very concerned for Alana and the girls and he has no idea what the hell June is thinking right now." In a video posted by OK! Magazine , Sugar Bear is seen telling paparazzi that he is “a little bit” upset that McDaniel was around his daughter. Shannon posted a video on Friday vehemently denying that she has had any contact with McDaniel since his release from prison. She has since deleted that video. Child Services told FOX411 on Monday that the department could not confirm or deny if they were investigating Shannon’s family for privacy reasons, but a rep explained, in general, if child services determines children are not safe in their environment they are removed from their home. In that case, the Division of Family and Children Services looks to nearby relatives to care for the children. A typical investigation takes 30 to 45 days. Family law attorney Jacqueline Newman, of Berkman Bottger Newman & Rodd, predicted Shannon may end up losing custody of her three daughters, who are all under 18 years old. "I think in situations like this, courts take them very seriously.

If they find that these children are in any way in harm’s way, they will take the kids away." Four4Four: Katie Holmes: Tom who?

Latest News Honey Boo Boo, the rising reality TV star from poorest Georgia, attracts big audiences, but what are those audiences thinking – about her, her community, and the society that entertains itself with a 7-year-old child to reinforce redneck stereotypes?

— The reality show "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo " has been a ratings winner in recent weeks, capitalizing on redneck stereotypes and the oversized personality of a 6-year-old beauty pageant regular. But some who live nearby are concerned about the way their quiet pocket of central Georgia is being portrayed on the TLC series. The show centers around Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson, her mother June Shannon and their family. The round-cheeked second-grader, who previously appeared on the TLC show "Toddlers & Tiaras," has a penchant for outrageous catchphrases – "A dolla makes me holla!" and "You better redneckognize!" –that have gone viral and raised some eyebrows. Yet as the show attracts healthy audiences for a TLC series – from 2 to 3 million weekly – it has also drawn strong reactions. Some say it exploits and mocks small-town people and perpetuates offensive stereotypes of life in the South. Others criticize the parenting involved. Still others insist the series shows a loving family that doesn't let outside opinions bother them. Recommended: Are you a Helicopter Parent?

Take our quiz In an interview with The Associated Press this week, Alana said filming the show was fun because she got to do things she doesn't always get to do, like going to a water park. Her mother said the family has enjoyed doing the show and believes the way it's edited portrays their unscripted life fairly and accurately. Photos of the Day Photos of the Day 01/17 "This is who she is," Shannon said as her daughter interrupted her with silly jokes and giggles. "This is her everyday life. She's got her own little personality, especially like when the cameras come on and when she's got attention." Alana, who turned 7 late last month after filming ended, was friendly and playful, though a bit distracted, during her second national media interview of the day. Like so many kids her age, she likes to be the center of attention, and when she said or did something funny, she'd look around to gauge the reaction of those around her. She whined to her mother about not wanting to go to school, but finally headed out the door to join her classmates in a tan dress and strappy silver sandals with little heels.

The tiny town of McIntyre is nestled in a rural county that is a major exporter of kaolin, a chalky clay used in a wide range of products, including cosmetics, medicines, catalytic converters for vehicles and heat shields on space shuttles. The town's population is around 650 and nearly 40 percent of the families had an income that put them below the poverty level, according to 2010 Census numbers. Main Street stretches for about three blocks and features a small handful of businesses. The show has portrayed the area unfairly, choosing to fixate on shots of junk cars, garbage dumps and stray animals, Wilkinson County Chamber of Commerce president Jonathan Jackson said in a statement, adding that he'd like to see more of the region's positive attributes on the air. "You can't very well ask and expect a television network to possess tact and taste — unless it makes them a dollar," he said. Among the more than two dozen locals approached by the AP, the most common reaction to the series was that, for better or worse, it has "put McIntyre on the map." Many said they watch and enjoy the show, though most didn't necessarily think it represents the way most people in the area live.

"I don't mind it, it's just that it doesn't give a good image for the county since it is a small county, and it's a really family-oriented county, and we are basically, you know, church goers down here, and a lot of the things they do ... we don't agree with it," said Carolyn Snead, a McIntyre resident who works as a tax preparer. But she thinks Alana is funny and adorable and that if the show helps her succeed, it's worthwhile. Tommy Floyd used to live near the family in nearby Toomsboro and has ridden four-wheel all-terrain vehicles with them and called them "good people to be around." "They don't put on," he said. "That's everything they do every day. It ain't just put on for the show." Anita McGahee owns a flower and gift shop near the family's home and said several fans have stopped by her shop to buy stuffed animals or balloons for Alana or her 17-year-old sister Anna, who recently had a baby. She said she knows the family and called them "simple, country people." "It bothers me a little that people might think that that's what everyone here is like.

It's like we all don't have any manners," she said, but that doesn't stop McGahee from going to her mother's house every Wednesday evening to watch the show. Homer Rawls lives in nearby Gordon and said he's not too worried about the show making people in other parts of the country think all Southerners are backward rednecks. "They already think that," he joked. "It kind of makes country folks look a little bad, but it's done in fun." Some people who stopped by a gas station convenience store to pick up a burger or barbecue for lunch said they didn't want to discuss it, while others blasted the family's behavior. But in this close-knit community where most people know each other at least a little bit and word travels fast, none of those with strong negative opinions were willing to give their names. Since the show premiered last month, online criticism has focused on the family's behavior, weight and diet — which often includes junk food and sometimes a mixture of Mountain Dew and Red Bull they call "go-go juice." Many online commenters liken it to a train wreck they can't stop watching because they're shocked and horrified.

When the show began, Shannon said she was concerned about online criticism of her family and the way she parents, but she said she doesn't go online much these days unless one of her friends or a fan alerts her to a particular story. She said she also knows opinions in town are mixed. "It's small town living," she said. "I don't have any trouble with anybody here or whatever, but people are going to have opinions. I mean, that's everyday life." Executive producer Lauren Lexton rejects accusations that the show is exploiting the family or playing on stereotypes. The show has been so popular, she said, because the family members clearly love each other and strike a chord with the audience. "They seem outrageous, but then once you get to know them, you really relate to them and like them," she said. Shannon declined to disclose how much TLC is paying them for each episode, saying only, "We are very well compensated." But the money isn't going toward lavish purchases and is instead divided into equal trusts for each of the four kids, she said.

The family still lives on the money Shannon's partner, Mike "Sugar Bear" Thompson, makes from his job in the nearby chalk mines and has no plans to move from the modest house they lived in before the show, Shannon said. The show's one-hour season finale is Sept. 26. TLC isn't saying yet whether it will do a second season of the hit show, but Shannon isn't concerned. "Life is all about experiences," Shannon said, "and this is one of the experiences on the journey of life, and if it continues, fine, and if it doesn't, then we move on to be the same people we were before the show even started."

TLC has broken through the bottom of the barrel and is digging their way to China. Honestly, TLC, a series about a bad-behaving hyperactive child and her white-trash family? This is what passes for programming on TLC now? If you've run out of ideas, TLC, then I've got some suggestions. How about setting up a camera to watch paint dry? It'd be better than "Honey Boo Boo" any day. And now, if you'll excuse me, I've got to go apologize to the Kardashians.

The way this white trash family is making it on to the television, i will never know. Like father jack says "how did that gobshite get on the television?!" The absolute low of television. It makes The kardashians look like House. This woman is taking her little daughter and embarrassing her in front of the world. She is taking her, dressing her up as a hooker and getting paid. I cant believe we live in a world where this can happen. Even if you were just curious to see how bad it is, do NOT watch it. It is that bad! I feel sympathy for this little girl, her mom is the real harm. Someone needs to call child services and have her daughter taken off her. this is one real bad mother. PLEASE CANCEL THIS HORRIBLE SHOW! Was the above review useful to you? 129 out of 163 people found the following review useful: Can't even bear to see the commercials from Southern California 15 August 2012 I enjoy watching a variety of 'reality' shows because it's entertaining and educational to observe the diversity of human behaviors in this day and age. And, I do like to watch Toddlers & Tiaras.

However, 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' is one show that I cannot bear to watch. The commercials themselves, which are apparently intended to entice viewers to tune in to the show, are nauseating at best. Make a list of behaviors that children are normally taught not to engage in because such behaviors are disgusting, unnecessary in the company of others, and are downright rude. Then, watch any episode of 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' and you can check just about everything on the list you made and those behaviors will be featured on this repulsive show. I cannot think of a single redeeming feature of this show. TLC has certainly turned the corner into the downright awful when they produced this show. Was the above review useful to you? 126 out of 160 people found the following review useful: This Is What's Wrong With America from United States 2 October 2012 It's become apparent that the reason this pile of crap remains on the air is because their base followers come out of the woodwork(literally) to keep up with Honey Boo Boo's antics. Honestly, was there not a SINGLE TLC executive who looked at the would-be creators of this show and asked them if they were joking?.

Because this is purely awful. And not only is it awful, but it insults my intelligence in more ways than I can count. Also, what kind of show needs subtitles for 90% of the footage when the show's characters are all English speaking Americans? That's just mind-blowing to me, but entirely normal if you're a regular TLC subscriber. Every now and then, when commercials for this show come on, a few tears trickle down my cheek. I weep for those who find Honey Boo Boo a good use of their time and/or entertaining in any way. This election year, I hope you join with me, America, in voting NO for more dumb, unintelligent, unoriginal, unfunny, grimace-inducing television shows. Honey Boo Boo should never have seen the light of day. Never.

I use to think Jersey Shore was bad, but it (Jersey Shore) looks like Breaking Bad in comparison.

I don't even know where to start. This is child abuse, I just can't believe people would even allow this garbage on television. The worst part is that it's on "The Learning Channel". I don't know what were the people thinking when TLC accepted this awful crap on their channel. It's disgraceful to our society. Just like the South Park episode said, "the bar has been lowered to depths we can't fathom", this is what society has come to. So concluding everything, this show is very, Very, VERY painful to watch, these negative reviews aren't exaggerating, nor am I, this show really is vomit-provoking.

23 November 2012 *** This review may contain spoilers *** Yes, folks, I have a grudge against one of the most hated TV Series since The Problem Solvers and the Annoying Orange, Here Comes Honey Boo Boo. People of TLC, I ask you with all seriousness: IS THAT ALL YOU DRUGGED-UP NINCOMPOOPS CAN COME UP WITH?!!! This show is so dumb, so evil, and so demonic, not even the secret lovechild of Cruella De Vill from 101 Dalmations, Patrick Star from Spongebob Squarepants, and Katrina Stoneheart from the 1980's Pound Puppies TV Series would want to record it on DVR! First, the plot is boring. When you think about a TV Series, do you think about watching this family of Stay Puft Marshmallow Man off-springs doing everyday boring things? I DON'T F------ THINK SO!!! Second, not one of the family members in this disaster have a brain or are likable. Fortunately, one of the characters is killed off... and it's the pig. Pepperoni Pizza, everyone? Finally, this show is a spin-off of freaking Toddlers and Tiaras!

Now, I have a bigger reason why I hate both these shows. It's bad enough that TLC airs Toddlers and Tiaras, but this show is just as bad as that piece of s---! This is the kind of show that will make you say "I would rather be eaten alive by a group of cannibals and have my brain donated to science than watch 'Here Comes Honey Boo-Boo'!" Bottom Line: No interesting people, boring plots, and Toddlers and Tiaras are the reasons why you should avoid Here Comes Honey Boo Boo like the West Nile Virus. Was the above review useful to you? 46 out of 68 people found the following review useful: 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' is an embarrassment to the people of the South 18 September 2012 *** This review may contain spoilers *** I can't believe this is actually a show. It honestly makes 'Jersey Shore' look like 'The Brady Bunch' and 'Keeping up with the Kardashians' look like 'All in the Family'. This is is absolutely horrible and a disgrace to the people who live in the South.

Apparently, this show takes place near Atlanta, Georgia, which isn't that bad of a place either. I'm a southerner and these people give us a bad name. I turned this on and subsequently watched three episodes with my mouth nearly wide open. I could not believe that TLC actually turned this into a show -- TLC, after all, has some solid programming -- My Strange Addiction, Cake Boss, Four Wedding, 19 Kids & Counting, Extreme Couponing, Say Yes to the Dress and multiple others -- I do not watch most of those shows but have heard good things from females. Unfortunately, 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' scrapes the bottom of the barrel. This show follows the story of Alana, affectionately known as "Honey Boo Boo" in Georgia, along with her parents, three sisters and their pet pig, "Glitzy". Alana participates in pageants and this show is mainly filmed during the pageant's "offseason". Numerous things go on throughout the show, which is something people don't really care about. Like myself, I'm sure they care about the following aspects...

* Having captions for their words: First off, you know it's bad when a TV station has to give the people subtitles for their words and sentences. I can understand having it for a young girl like "Honey Boo Boo", but not for her 32-year-old mom and 40-year-old father, also known as "Sugar Bear". That's just horrible and people are mainly going to attribute that to the South, which isn't a good thing by any means. Not all people here in the South are like that, but they sure don't help our cause either. * The girls have different dads: In one of three episodes I watched (IU can't remember which one), the mom (June) was randomly explaining the dynamics of her family -- to which she said Alana is the daughter of her and Sugar Bear's (her current boyfriend of eight years). She would then go on to say that her other three daughters had different dads, although she didn't state how many different dads there were. June just said that none of THEM were in the picture, which is definitely at least two different dads. If that's not the case, then all four daughters have different dads, which is downright horrible and should be on 'Maury' instead.

Come on. I wouldn't even share that on television if I was in her shoes -- that makes her look like a tramp, straight up. * The random picture of Dale Earnhardt: I'll be the first to tell you that I'm a humongous NASCAR fan and have been for the majority of my life (check out fourturns.blogspot.com). NASCAR is one of my favorite sports, along with the NFL and the NBA. And seeing that picture of Dale Earnhardt makes me automatically assume that these people are NASCAR and Earnhardt fans, which probably isn't a good thing. NASCAR is mainly categorized as a "redneck sport" and it will stay that way for the foreseeable future. It sucks to be thought of as a redneck just because you love the sport. And these people do not help that situation. They are rednecks (and often refer to themselves as that), but not all NASCAR fans are that way -- like me and my father. That just makes us fans look tremendously bad. * Their "code words": I really don't know how else to explain it, so I'm just going to go with code words.

Throughout the entire show, you'd notice that they have many different words for many different things. Two of the most prominent and used words on their show is "too-tay" and "biscuit", which refers to a woman's downstairs area (I would just say the p---- word, but that would probably be very offensive). Regardless, that's just stupid. I can understand using a word like "butt" instead of "ass", especially when you're trying to refrain from using that word around young children. But come on. Seriously? I have never, ever heard anybody say those words -- at least when it comes to referring to down there. It's just stupid. * Crockett's Cafeteria: Seriously? I understand that the town is just around 700 people but come on. In one of the episodes, the mom and Sugar Bear went out to Crockett's Cafeteria for their eight-year anniversary. Yes, I have never been to Crockett's, nor have ever heard of it, but it looked despicable. At least go to Wendy's, Back Yard Burger or Arby's if there's one there. I'm sure that there is a restaurant in their town that is better than that.

I can understand if they don't have much money, but they have to be making a decent chunk of change if their being filmed by TLC. They could have done much better. I could honestly go on and on and on about this show, but I'm going to just stop here. I think this is enough points. The ONLY reason I'm giving it a 2/10 is because it's somewhat entertaining, even though it's an embarrassment to the people in the South. Other than that, I just don't like the show. TLC should be doing a lot better than following these "rednecks" around. Come on, son.

Nicknamed Honey Boo Boo, Alana and her family, mother June, dad Sugar Bear and sisters Lauryn, Jessica and Anna, will be the focus of the series when the youngest daughter isn't competing in pageants.

Written by TLC 8 August 2012 (USA) See more » Also Known As: Chegou Honey Boo Boo! See more » Company Credits Alana was known to be taken away by child care services. See more » Connections (Ireland) – See all my reviews This is the illest thing i have ever seen. The way this white trash family is making it on to the television, i will never know. Like father jack says "how did that gobshite get on the television?!" The absolute low of television. It makes The kardashians look like House. This woman is taking her little daughter and embarrassing her in front of the world. She is taking her, dressing her up as a hooker and getting paid. I cant believe we live in a world where this can happen. Even if you were just curious to see how bad it is, do NOT watch it. It is that bad! I feel sympathy for this little girl, her mom is the real harm. Someone needs to call child services and have her daughter taken off her. this is one real bad mother. PLEASE CANCEL THIS HORRIBLE SHOW! 126 of 154 people found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you?
